When providing the options for an Choice question in an Excel Survey I found out that there is a character limit to the input box where you provide the options. Seems like this limit is around 1000 characters, which is far too little for providing full overviews of countries, products, models and many more categories that many companies have in their datasets and would like to incorporate in surveys.
